Abstract/OtherAbstract:

OBJECTIVES: To review the published literature concerning robotic surgery and its applications in the management of cervical carcinoma. METHODS: We electronically searched the MEDLINE from January 1990 until June 2010. We cross-examined article references to identify relevant articles not detected by the electronic search. RESULTS: The majority of the reported literature consisted of case series, case reports or retrospective comparisons. Twenty-one articles were included in this review covering the different surgical applications: (5) radical trachelectomy, (12) radical hysterectomy, (3) pelvic exenteration and one parametrectomy. CONCLUSION: Robotic surgery enabled more gynaecological oncologists to perform more complex procedures safely while maintaining the minimal access approach. |
